Diztracto Spinners featuring logos from Batman, Superman, Tweety Bird, Bugs Bunny — all of people's favorites Rich Johnston has already written about their line of MLB fidget spinners, so this feels like a natural next step, especially into the comic book shop market I gotta believe that these things are not hard to manufacture, as[...]

According to the recently released Top 100 index from Diamond, both Batman #21 by Tom King and Jason Fabok and The Flash #21 by Joshua Williamson and Howard Porter, part of DC's The Button crossover, were higher sellers than Secret Empire #0. To figure this out, we need to look at the Diamond Sales Index number for each title: The[...]

We also get to see Arthur and Mera's "first" meeting, when they were younger. If I could find the other boxes I'd love to complete the mural you can create by linking the boxes together, but I'm ok with just Batman–he is my favorite superhero!   I don't think I need to really tell you about[...]

Yay! However, Secret Empire's win must come with an asterisk for now, as Bleeding Cool Rumormonger-in-Chief Rich Johnston pointed out that sales for Batman #21 (The Button) were split into two listings, one for the lenticular cover and one without, taking both the second and seventh spots on the chart Is Batman #21 actually the top selling[...]

When popular comic subscription box service Comic Bento asked us if we'd like a subscription to the service in order to unbox it on Bleeding Cool, we thought to ourselves: finally all that hard work at comics journalism has paid off with some free schwag! We also thought that it would be wrong, we guess,[...]

In talking to the LA Daily News about War for the Planet of the Apes, director Matt Reeves told them that Planet of the Apes and Batman are, "the two franchises which were the two that I was connected to most as a child."  Given that Reeves would have been about 20 years old when[...]

The park is expected to be perfectly safe, however, as long as your mother's name is Martha, or, in a pinch, you're at least willing to lie and claim it is.

From Lobo's hook to Martian Manhunter's suit to the Blue Beetle ship to Destiny's book, there's a lot to find here. And remember this scene from DC Universe Rebirth that led to The Button storyline? Well, we get to see it again from the Flash perspective. And a return to Flashpoint… And it's time for a trip… Is that a[...]

I notice you're wearing a Superman shirt today, I'm interested… how do you feel about Superman as a character because– Frank Miller: Excuse me, it's not just a Superman shirt, Superman is punching out the Atom on this shirt.

Last week, rumors hit the web claiming that Warner Bros was prepping a four-picture Bat-slate for 2019, planning to release Gotham City Sirens, Nightwing, Batgirl, and The Batman that year both in celebration of Batman's debut in Detective Comics 80 years prior and because, let's face it, everything sells better with Batman Warner Bros hasn't[...]

Anyone who has seen Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the incredibly long, clunky titled last major instalment in the DC connected film universe (Suicide Squad didn't really further the connected universe much, let's be honest), featured what was essentially Doomsday in the film…though drastically different from the comics. Because after all, this Doomsday was made[...]

Jared Leto is channelling his...colourful version of the Joker to accept his nomination to the Best Villain category of the MTV Movie Awards.

Standing at about 11.5 inches tall, she will come with the Sword of Athena and her shield, and swappable sword and shield to also recreate her look from Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice as well I love her look in the DCU, especially the colors of her suit, and they really pop on this[...]

The only reason I bought a DC comic was because of Jim Lee's run on Suicide Squad (Capullo: You might even say … an artist moved the needle!) But how much will I need to go back and read in Batman to understand the new event. Snyder: You won't need to read anything You can pick[...]

Batman has staple villains Birds of Prey haven't really haven't, so they created a new recurring villain that is powerful enough to give them all a problem. "Why is there no Justice Society book?
